Highlights
Pet care experience
Vet student and animal lover 🥰
I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember, my grandad used to have a farm so my contact with animals started from very early on in life. To teach me to love and care for an animal, my grandad gave me the responsibility to care for our farm dogs from the age of 4. Ever since, I’ve been looking after neighbours, friends and family pets. Since I was a teenager, I started getting more people asking me to look after their dogs as they could see that I did it for the love, passion and responsibility I have for animals. Since I was young, I wanted to be a Vet so I focused on my studies and i got myself in Vet school in which I am currently studying. As a vet student, I know most animal anatomy, ability to identify disease and can identify any behavioural change with your pup. I am able to administer any medication to your pup if needed. As a previous owner of a senior dog, I’m happily to dogsit senior dogs as I know what their needs require. I will feed your pup with whatever feeding requirements they might have as long as I have the instructions from the owner. Above all of it, I will make sure that your pup gets all the care, love and cuddles they get from you at home! ☺️

Ratings and reviews
Jessica was an absolute life saviour with Puck. I had just adopted Puck, a rescue mutt who used to be a street dog in Romania. Puck is a very anxious dog who comes with an unknown baggage and traumas. I was nervous to have to leave him so early after welcoming him into my family. Nevertheless, Jessica came as an absolute guardian angel. She knew exactly how to handle him, and gave me daily updates with adorable pictures and cute anecdotes! I will now always choose Jessica to take care of Puck, who has now formed a bond with her. Thank you so much Jessica! Can’t recommend her enough!
I'm delighted to have found Jess - and so is Suzi. The fact that Jess is a veterinary student filled me with confidence that she likes animals and is concerned for their welfare. She sent me photos and reports of Suzi each of the days I was away, and brought Suzi to meet me on my return. Suzi and I will certainly hope she is available next time...
Jessica has been great! Communication was quick and easy. She watched our 3 year old energetic black lab twice this week and he loved it! Will definitely book with her again.
Jessica was super helpful and accommodating to look after our dog last minute. She sent us updates on how his stay was going and looked like he was having such a great time with her dog too. Highly recommend! Thank you ?
Jessica was great for us and our 7 years old Maltipoo. And Jessica’s own dog seemed to make Lisa relaxed. Jessica is really calm and we felt secure leaving our rescue dog with her for eight days. We got photos and reports and Lisa was clean and nice when we got her back. Will contact Jessica again. Highly recommend!
Great communication and a lovely dog sitter :)

Schedule
I work full time but my partner works from home so he will be home with your furry baby keeping them company. Any walks or feeding will be done by him when I am not home. Please note, I also have 2 cats that are friendly with dogs. When me or my partner are not home, I make sure that everyone stays separated, they only interact when under supervision. Therefore, I can only take dogs that are cat friendly or tolerate cats. However, I can guarantee that whenever your pup is here, we will give it our undivided attention. I will make sure they get all the exercise and nutrition they need whilst in our care.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a 1 bedroom flat in an estate so therefore I have unfenced communal gardens. Whilst in my care, your dog will always be on leash unless owners tell me otherwise. Safety is my number one priority while your pup is in my care. I live with my partner, so it will just be us and your pup in a quiet and safe environment. There is no smoking or drinking in the house, and there nothing laying around the house that could be a hazard to your dog.
A typical day
Whatever instructions owners give me, I will try and reciprocate those whilst your pup is staying with me. I have an unfenced communal gardens that I used to play with my own dog and with any dogs I am boarding. Please feel free to bring any toys or other things that your dog will need to have a happy stay with me ☺️
